Curt Schilling sends out insensitive tweet, deletes it minutes later: (He should have left it!)

Curt
Schilling, a 20-year major-league veteran and current analyst for
ESPN's Sunday Night Baseball, is no stranger to giving his opinion on
controversial and divisive topics.

This time however, even he realized he crossed the line.

THE REAL fact is that radical muslims have learned their tactics from the Nazis; over 20,000 arabs fought side-by-side with SS groups in WWII. Read more here: www.rebirthofisrael.com

Schilling sent out the following tweet Tuesday morning from his verified Twitter account @gehrig38
featuring a graphic that equated "extremist Muslims" to the Nazi
regime, then deleted it minutes later as the backlash and questions
began to pour in:

Coming just a couple days after dealing with Cris Carter's comments, it's sure going to be a busy week for ESPN PR. ESPN released this
statement condemning the tweet and confirming that Schilling would no
longer be broadcasting from the Little League World Series this week:

Curt's tweet was completely
unacceptable, and in no way represents our company’s perspective. We
made that point very strongly to Curt and have removed him from his
current Little League assignment pending further consideration.

Schilling
engaged with a number of people on Twitter, accepting responsibility
for what was sent out from his account before saying he understood he
was deserving of his suspension.

I say GOOD JOB for posting it, since our society needs to know the truth about Israel's enemies because their enemies are our enemies!

We have gone out of our way to acknowledge President Obama when he has stood by Israel. But now President Obama has crossed the line. His disrespect of the Israeli people and their leadership are simply unacceptable. The fact that he blasts Israel while embracing and forgiving Iran only ads salt to the wound.

In this time of enormous danger in the Middle East, Israelis want a pragmatic leader who does not conjure peace partners out of thin air or base their security on a foundation of shifting sands. Meanwhile, President Obama continues to live in a fairytale world where there could be peace and security tomorrow if only Israel left the West Bank. To believe in this nice story, the President must ignore all of the Israeli peace offers that the Palestinians have rejected. He must likewise turn a blind eye to the likelihood that Hamas would seize these strategic territories in short order. And he must pretend that ISIS would not take over in the long term.

It seem that President Obama's fantasies regarding the Palestinians are similar to those he believes regarding Iran. But ignoring danger does not make it go away. President Obama may prefer to belittle Prime Minister Netanyahu for recognizing these realities. But we would all be better off if President Obama looked past Bibi and saw these dangers for himself.

The latest social media that landed on Twitter included a photo of female Israeli Air Force combat pilots standing by their fighter jets. The item pointed out that there are more women F-16 pilots in Israel than there are women car drivers in Saudi Arabia.

That’s true, of course. Women are forbidden to drive in that Islamic kingdom, whereas women in Israel participate fully and equally in every facet of Israeli society — including military defense.

The second was a report that noted Israel currently produces more new business start-ups than Japan, India, Korea, or the United Kingdom. It also pointed out that there are now more Israeli companies listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange — the exchange dominated by technology companies — than any other nation on Earth other than the United States.

There is no escaping the fact that the tiny nation of Israel represents a remarkable island of Western Civilization values and modernity — floating in an increasingly turbulent sea of medieval barbarism. Is it any mystery why her neighbors ceaselessly work to destroy her?

Please remember to pray and support this nation that is surrounded by many hostel foes.
